00:00:33He told me he can move, he can run, he can hit top speed.
00:00:38He also said, look, when I returned to practice, I was a little juiced up and I was overthrowing some
00:00:43of my wide receivers, but I've toned it down and I'm back to my old ways.
00:00:48Those are the ways his head coach Ben Johnson are really looking forward to.
00:00:53He told us this week he brings us a lot of life and we need that with some of the
00:00:57guys we have missing.
00:00:58We need a shot in the arm right now and I would love for him to that to be him.
00:01:04We'll see if he can do it.
00:01:05That was impressive, by the way, through multiple horns in the middle of the recording.
00:01:09Wow.
00:01:10Minor distractions.
00:01:11We got some noise here.
00:01:12Falcons won the toss.
00:01:13They deferred.
00:01:14So the Bears will get it to Stark.
00:01:16Let it have you aboard.
00:01:17Week six.
00:01:18And here we go.
00:01:19NFL on Fox.
00:01:21Bears will return it with Thomas.
00:01:23What a good return last week in Green Bay and then bounces to the outside where he's tripped up at
00:01:28about the 33.
00:01:29And so we will see Caleb Williams and watch those maybe nerves or anxiousness moments in his return from that
00:01:37hamstring.
00:01:37Sure is and I think what's impressed me over the years, we all talk about his physical skill set, his
00:01:43athleticism, his ability to throw the football on the run.
00:01:46But to me it's, there's just so few turnover worthy plays.
00:01:50He doesn't put his team in a bad position by turning it over and that's really a strength for him
00:01:56amongst many other physical strengths I'm sure we'll see today.
00:02:04Started with a fake to DeAndre Swift Williams looking through and complete the tight end Loveland hangs on amidst the
00:02:11big hit.
00:02:12And that's a pretty good start on the rollout for Williams.
00:02:16Pick up 16.
00:02:17Yeah, nice job by Ben Johnson getting him out of the pocket early where he can see nobody's in front
00:02:23of him.
00:02:24And he's not a quarterback in the league that can roll to the left and throw the ball with velocity
00:02:30and at this time accurate to Loveland.
00:02:33I don't go naked bootleg.
00:02:35It's a great start.
00:02:36That'll kind of get some of those pregame jitters out of the way.
00:02:40Kind of like a layup, right?
00:02:41Give him a few layups early.
00:02:43Nothing wrong with that.
00:02:44We're good, we're good.
00:02:46Two percent.
00:02:48Here's a run to Swift up the middle and DeAndre Swift tries to push the pile for a few.
00:02:54As we said, these are the two best running teams in the NFL.
00:02:57So you're going to see a lot of it today.
00:02:59And this Bears offense around them, I think what they'd like to see is more of Colston Loveland and more
00:03:04of Luther Byrne.
00:03:05The younger guys have kind of been off to a slow start.
00:03:08They have.
00:03:08It starts with the run game, though.
00:03:09Super physical run game.
00:03:11Everyone plays a role.
00:03:12But you're right.
00:03:12So much of the offense has gone through the running back and Caleb scrambles when he's been in there.
00:03:17Who's that third option that can really emerge?
00:03:20Here's Williams.
00:03:21Time to throw against it out to Swift.
00:03:23Swift wide open in the flat.
00:03:24Swift head down.
00:03:25He's got a first down.
00:03:26So a good start.
00:03:27A couple easy throws.
00:03:28And the Bears on the move early against this Falcons defense, which had been excellent against the run until last
00:03:35week when they gave up over 200 to the Ravens.
00:03:38Yeah, it's a very disruptive defense.
00:03:40They haven't got kind of all those takeaways that most defensives need.
00:03:43It's kind of 11 guys in a red jersey today.
00:03:46There's no real standouts.
00:03:48It's D-line by committee, secondary by committee.
00:03:50But they kind of take on their style, their defensive coordinator, Olbrich.
00:03:56And they play very hard, very aggressive all day long.
00:03:59Penalty flag here.
00:04:01And Bears are going to move back five.
00:04:03Scott Novak is our referee today.
00:04:05Ball start.
00:04:06Offense number 87.
00:04:08That's a five-yard penalty.
00:04:09First down.
00:04:12Tom, some big injuries in this game for both sides.
00:04:15For Chicago on offense, no Kyle Monongai today, who is excellent.
00:04:19He makes that two-headed running back with DeAndre Swift.
00:04:22So we'll see Roshon Johnson there.
00:04:24Falcons defensively are without their starting cornerback, C.J. Henderson.
00:04:28So we'll see a lot more of Avion Terrell, number 12, the rookie.
00:04:34Williams over the middle.
00:04:36Quick throw.
00:04:36Again, it's Loveland who's got a completion for five.
00:04:38So already two catches for Loveland, who's got only 13 through the first five weeks of the year.
00:04:43I love seeing him kind of emerge early in the game.
00:04:46I've been kind of waiting for him to show up.
00:04:48He was so good in his rookie season last year.
00:04:52And I think just all the variation of quarterbacks this season for the Bears
00:04:56hasn't allowed some of these skilled players to get the kind of touches that they're used to.
00:05:00But I know Caleb Williams has a ton of confidence in him.
00:05:02And it's kind of showing early here today.
00:05:04Two catches through the first four or five plays.
00:05:08Williams, three for three to start.
00:05:11Rego, Rego, Rego.
00:05:13Fargo.
00:05:15Four-man rush this time.
00:05:16Some pressure escapes.
00:05:18He does it better than everyone.
00:05:20Throws across his body.
00:05:21Has swept down the sideline.
00:05:22Nearly intercepted.
00:05:24Oh, a lot happened there.
00:05:26Xavier Watts was in perfect position to pick it off.
00:05:29And there's a penalty as well on the far side.
00:05:31So let's break it all down.
00:05:37So many of those plays by Caleb just...
00:05:44It's like they have him in their grasp, and then he escapes through the trap door.
00:05:50And then he bails out and gives his receiver a chance.
00:05:53But again, sometimes when the quarterback holds the ball for a long time in the pocket,
00:05:57and Caleb holds it basically as long as anybody in the NFL,
00:06:01it means the offensive line up front, they've got to hold up for a long time, too.
00:06:05And when the quarterbacks escape out of a way that they're not blocking,
00:06:09sometimes they get their hands out there for a holding penalty.
00:06:15And so with that, it's second and 19.
00:06:18Again, four-man rush.
00:06:19Williams zips underneath.
00:06:20He's got Luther Burden who makes the catch.
00:06:22And Burden is taken down by Bates on a solid tackle at the 42.
00:06:29Kevin Stefanski, first-year head coach in Atlanta.
00:06:31Six years in Cleveland, and they were a team that loved to run the ball when he's there as well,
00:06:37and he's doing the same formula here.
00:06:38Really a total regime change in Atlanta with Stefanski bringing in new staffers,
00:06:43and Matt Ryan back in the building, the former MVP running the show.
00:06:48They had eight straight losing seasons trying to turn it around.
00:06:59Third down.
00:07:00Fake a blitz.
00:07:01Underneath the dude's arrow.
00:07:03Lateral wide out coming near side.
00:07:05Johnson's got the first down.
00:07:08A little hook and ladder from Adunze to Roshon Johnson,
00:07:12and they convert on third down.
00:07:14Now that's what we've been expecting from the Ben Johnson offense.
00:07:17Just a little under route on the right side of the screen.
00:07:20And then he's got the back, Roshon Johnson coming out the back.
00:07:23And as everyone closes on the guy who catches it, Adunze,
00:07:27then you've got the little misdirection with Johnson coming behind it.
00:07:31That's why we love covering this guy.
00:07:33It's rarely a game where they don't do something fun.
00:07:35Hey, we're good, we're good!
00:07:38Johnson!
00:07:39Pitch near side.
00:07:41Johnson.
00:07:42Lead block from Lovlin.
00:07:44And a solid run from Rashad Johnson.
00:07:48Well, hasn't gotten a ton of time this year.
00:07:50Obviously, he played with Monungay getting dinged last week.
00:07:54He's going to be counted on today to spell Swift in this two-running back system they use.
00:07:58And I think this system, too, KB, with Ben Johnson,
00:08:00we get so used to those trick plays.
00:08:03It forces the defense to go horizontal a lot.
00:08:06But in the end, when they start going horizontally,
00:08:09that's when he goes downhill.
00:08:10And you can never forget about this run game.
00:08:12And that's why they're such a great run game.
00:08:14You got caught up going side to side,
00:08:15you can't play aggressively in the line of scrimmage.
00:08:25Johnson again.
00:08:26There's the downhill run game with a good seam.
00:08:29And Johnson down around the 11 as you call, TB.
00:08:35There's just a huge hole there on the left side, sorry, on the right side.
00:08:39It's just an inside zone from the pistol.
00:08:41И и as soon as they move those bodies out of the gap in this offensive line I think
00:08:46is their most consistent dependable group on this offense.
00:08:50They show up every week.
00:08:52They're great in the run game, they're great in the pass game.
00:08:55They're Maulers on the right side of the line of scrimmage in the run game.
00:08:58A very tough hard-nose offensive line.
00:09:01Very representative of the city that they play for.

00:15:08He's got a set of the Bears in
00:15:09great field position after an
00:15:11opening drive touchdown Caleb
00:15:13Williams back at it.
00:15:14Drive number two coming your
00:15:15way.
00:15:19Well Caleb Williams is fired up
00:15:20and you know you missed time for
00:15:21the first time in your football
00:15:23life and he's emotional and
00:15:26happy to be back out there if
00:15:27an opening drive touchdown and
00:15:28then on the flip side Michael
00:15:29Pennix as Tom told you coming
00:15:30back from the rib injury last
00:15:32week and he's going right to the
00:15:3310 so that's not particularly
00:15:35great because the Falcons much
00:15:37like the Bears have played with
00:15:38multiple quarterbacks matter of
00:15:39fact they've used four
00:15:40quarterbacks already this year
00:15:41we'll keep an eye on that.
00:15:42Here is Swift up the middle.
00:15:44We go downstairs more on Caleb
00:15:46with EA.
00:15:47Well remember what Ben Johnson
00:15:48said he'll add a lot of life.
00:15:50You saw that on the offense and
00:15:51the defense and break Tom you
00:15:53saw that shot of Caleb and you
00:15:54said you don't really see that
00:15:55from him too often.
00:15:57He said I miss this a lot.
00:15:58You don't realize how much you
00:15:59care for something until you
00:16:01don't have it.
00:16:01He told me I know that sounds
00:16:03cliche but I have more
00:16:04gratitude for this than ever.
00:16:06He said these guys are looking
00:16:07for me to make plays be the
00:16:08same guy every day.
00:16:09That's my focus and mindset
00:16:10today.
00:16:11Yeah.
00:16:12Certainly off to a good start.
00:16:14Great reporting.
00:16:15I love that.
00:16:19Oh fumble on the snap took his
00:16:20eye off and he smartly gets on
00:16:22it real quick but a loss there
00:16:23on the play.
00:16:24Yeah.
00:16:25He came racing out to midfield
00:16:27to say hello to you and us and
00:16:29almost gave us a chest bump so
00:16:31you could feel the energy that
00:16:32time just took his eye off it
00:16:33I think.
00:16:34Yeah.
00:16:34A little miscue early and some
00:16:35of that on the road.
00:16:37A lot of nonverbal communication
00:16:38with the snap and he hasn't been
00:16:40out there in three weeks so it
00:16:41doesn't always operate in the
00:16:42certainly what we've seen from
00:16:43a lot of early season football
00:16:45is a lot of miscues to get
00:16:49loose.
00:16:49Yeah.
00:16:50Might be coming in more.
00:16:52We'll see when they get the
00:16:53ball right now.
00:16:53third and long.
00:16:59Have to get to the Atlanta 49
00:17:01here.
00:17:02Williams stands in fires a strike
00:17:04to Adunze.
00:17:05A dart.
00:17:07And a first down for Chicago.
00:17:11Great route by Adunze on the
00:17:13in cut for a big guy.
00:17:15He's so twitchy that's where he
00:17:16gets the separation and then
00:17:18with that catch radius it
00:17:21doesn't need to be right in
00:17:23in front of the numbers.
00:17:25He puts it up there for his big
00:17:26fella to go up to the top shelf
00:17:28and take it off and bring it
00:17:29down with the first down.
00:17:30All these young playmakers
00:17:32touching it early with Loveland
00:17:33and Adunze and Burden the guys
00:17:35that they're looking to step up
00:17:37even bigger this year.
00:17:47another play action.
00:17:49Williams time again.
00:17:50Throws again.
00:17:51Wide open.
00:17:52It's Burden.
00:17:53First down and more.
00:17:54And he's shoved out of bounds
00:17:55around the 20.
00:17:56And Caleb Williams has had good
00:17:58protection in this first quarter.
00:18:01He's such a twitchy receiver.
00:18:03He's selling the go route.
00:18:06And then he just hits the brakes.
00:18:08And then Hughes kind of has his
00:18:10eyes in the backfield.
00:18:11But you're twitchy like that.
00:18:13You stop quickly.
00:18:14And then with that accurate throw
00:18:16that ball is gyrating.
00:18:18Coming out of Caleb's hands.
00:18:21I mean there is some smoke on the
00:18:23football when he cuts it loose.
00:18:24I've never heard that term used to
00:18:26describe a pass before.
00:18:27Caleb is hot.
00:18:28He's 8 of 8.
00:18:29112 yards to begin.
00:18:31Couple fakes.
00:18:32Set up a screen to Swift.
00:18:34Room to roll.
00:18:35Swift breaks the tackle.
00:18:36And he's down inside the 10.
00:18:38About a yard and a half short of
00:18:39a first down.
00:18:40And the Bears look good to start
00:18:42this game.
00:18:44Yeah.
00:18:44They are humming right now.
00:18:46KB.
00:18:46They've got it all going.
00:18:47The downhill run game.
00:18:48The misdirection plays.
00:18:50Then just the basic execution.
00:18:51And last time when they were in
00:18:52the red area.
00:18:53Caleb scrambles and throws at the
00:18:55Loveland.
00:18:56Holbrooke's got his hands full
00:18:57today.
00:18:58Yeah.
00:18:59They're going to need to do a
00:18:59good job offensively to keep
00:19:00this Bears offense off the field
00:19:02if they want to stand any chance
00:19:03today.
00:19:09Hey we're good.
00:19:10We're good.
00:19:12Joseph.
00:19:14Swift.
00:19:15Looks patient running by DeAndre
00:19:18Swift.
00:19:19And a first down.
00:19:20He has really come into his own.
00:19:22I mean he was.
00:19:23You think about last year the year
00:19:25he had in this first year in a Ben
00:19:27Johnson career high for him
00:19:28rushing almost 1100 yards
00:19:30scrimmage yards almost 1400.
00:19:32And he's 10th in the league in
00:19:33rushing this year.
00:19:34And really when Mononga is healthy
00:19:35splits carries.
00:19:36But he has been a perfect fit here
00:19:39in Chicago.
00:19:39Yeah.
00:19:40He's just so impressive.
00:19:41Every opportunity he gets he
00:19:42takes advantage of.
00:19:43He runs through people.
00:19:44He runs around people.
00:19:45Runs outside zones.
00:19:46Runs inside.
00:19:47Runs caves in people's face mask.
00:19:49He could do it all.
00:19:50Mark it.
00:19:50Mark it.
00:19:51Mark it.
00:19:52What did he.
00:19:52What do you got.
00:19:56Three tight ends on a first and
00:19:57goal.
00:19:58Caleb Williams zips it out.
00:20:00Comet makes a catch and he's
00:20:02pushed out of bounds inside the
00:20:03five.
00:20:04Getting Williams on the roll that
00:20:05time.
00:20:09And it's dangerous Caleb Williams
00:20:11in the red area because his
00:20:12legs are really a threat as well.
00:20:14So you deal with Swift in the run
00:20:16game.
00:20:17Then you deal with Caleb in the run
00:20:18game.
00:20:19And then all the misdirection
00:20:20plays.
00:20:22You know and then you got a
00:20:23Doomsday who's a big target.
00:20:24You got burden who's so twitchy.
00:20:26It's a.
00:20:27When they're humming.
00:20:28And we saw that a lot last year.
00:20:29They're pretty tough to stop.
00:20:40Swift right side breaks the
00:20:42tackle but not the next couple
00:20:43as it played well by Atlanta.
00:20:46Jared Ivey one of many in this
00:20:47defensive line rotation for Jeff
00:20:49Ulbrich.
00:20:50And now it's third and goal.
00:20:51And we.
00:20:52Tom you mentioned the Bears came
00:20:53in today last.
00:20:54There's Jeff Ulbrich.
00:20:55They came in last in red zone.
00:20:57They were only twenty nine
00:20:57percent the last month.
00:20:59Obviously scored on the opening
00:21:00drive.
00:21:01Another opportunity here.
00:21:03Turn the ball over in the red
00:21:04zone quite a bit too.
00:21:05That doesn't go to those red
00:21:06area stats.
00:21:06And again it's a different
00:21:07offense with Caleb Williams
00:21:08and no doubt.
00:21:10Three tight ends again on a third
00:21:12and goal.
00:21:21Swift.
00:21:22Right up the gun.
00:21:24Touchdown Chicago.
00:21:38Right behind my former teammate Joe
00:21:42Tooney.
00:21:43Kind of the.
00:21:46Defensive lineman stunting himself
00:21:48out of position and Tooney just
00:21:49washes him into the line of
00:21:51scrimmage.
00:21:52Swift hits it with conviction.
00:21:55Two for two in the red area.
00:21:57They got everything working
00:21:58right now.
00:21:58Sure do.
00:22:02Santos for the point after.
00:22:06Up and good.
00:22:08Most consecutive completions for
00:22:10Caleb Williams.
00:22:11He's 10 of 10 122 yards to start
00:22:14this game.
00:22:15Looks like panic is going to come
00:22:16back in.
00:22:16Good news for Atlanta.
00:22:17Bad news is they're down 14.
00:22:22Welcome back to Mercedes Benz
00:22:24Stadium here in Atlanta.
00:22:25Week six NFL.
00:22:27Caleb Williams is back with a
00:22:28vengeance.
00:22:2910 of 10 122 yards and a
00:22:32touchdown.
00:22:32The Bears have gone right down the
00:22:33field on Atlanta twice and have a
00:22:3614 nothing lead.
00:22:38Out three games with a hamstring
00:22:40and looking pretty good at his
00:22:43return early.
00:22:44Now Atlanta went three and out in
00:22:45their opening possession.
00:22:46Looks like Michael Penix will be
00:22:47back despite visiting the blue
00:22:49tent after that first series.
00:22:51Here is Branch.
00:22:53Branch starting at the 25.
00:22:55Let's find out what's going on
00:22:56with Penix.
00:22:56Go down to Tom.
00:22:57Well it could be right after that
00:22:58opening series.
00:22:59Penix came right over to the
00:23:00bench and immediately started
00:23:02to consult with members of the
00:23:03training staff here with the
00:23:05Falcons and then shortly after
00:23:06that went into the blue tent was
00:23:08in there for just over four
00:23:09minutes emerged came back out
00:23:12didn't talk to any trainers
00:23:13after that and now back in the
00:23:15game bears watching.
00:23:17Yeah it does interesting
00:23:18because especially after your
00:23:19first report Tom talked about
00:23:20he wasn't wearing anything
00:23:21restrictive or anything
00:23:22protect the rib and didn't
00:23:23see anything on that first
00:23:24drive but we'll pay attention
00:23:26to it.
00:23:27Falcons like to get some offense
00:23:28now.
00:23:38Here's Penix far side Drake London's
00:23:40got the catch for five time now
00:23:43for a game break presented by
00:23:44Burger King.
00:23:44What's up Carissa Thompson.
00:23:46Well Kevin as you know the
00:23:47Giants trying to stay atop the
00:23:48NFC East taking on the struggling
00:23:50Saints.
00:23:50James Winston dumps it off the
00:23:52Tyrone Tracy who dives in for
00:23:53the 17 yards scored Giants up
00:23:55seven nothing on the Saints.
00:23:58Giants got a chance to put some
00:24:00real distance in the NFC East
00:24:02depending on how things go you
00:24:03look at the standings three one
00:24:06and one quietly without Jackson
00:24:08Dart.
00:24:08Deshaun Robinson lined up as a
00:24:10wide out here bottom of your
00:24:11screen.
00:24:15Sentiment motion but to set it up
00:24:17to him looking for blocks there
00:24:18are none.
00:24:19He had nowhere to run it was Noah
00:24:21Sewell who blew that play up.
00:24:26So much energy on the Bears
00:24:29defense on the Bears sideline.
00:24:32Such a great start going on the
00:24:34road first quarter football all
00:24:36you can ask for offensively
00:24:38defensively special teams.
00:24:40They got it rolling today.
00:24:42Takes us at the end of the
00:24:44first 14 nothing Chicago.
00:24:49You know it's hard to lead when
00:24:51you're being out gained 154 to
00:24:52three after one quarter.
00:24:53A swoof.
00:24:54That was great for Chicago and
00:24:56rough for Atlanta with three and
00:24:58out in their first possession
00:24:59and very much in danger here on
00:25:01a third alone.
00:25:02They just haven't had the ball.
00:25:03Chicago has dominated on
00:25:04offense.
00:25:08Trace twice tried to get Bajon
00:25:10Robinson involved on screen
00:25:11plays and the Bears have blown
00:25:12it up both times.
00:25:13So now it's a third and eight.
00:25:14We start the second 14 nothing
00:25:16Bears.
00:25:23Panics stands in and throw
00:25:25incomplete right at the marker
00:25:29for Lama.
00:25:29But nowadays Zaccheaus looked like he
00:25:31had a chance to grab that one
00:25:32instead they'll send on the punt
00:25:34team.
00:25:34Yeah really nice decision and a
00:25:37good throw in zone coverage.
00:25:38He's away from the defender.
00:25:40I love these low throws past the
00:25:41first down mark and Zaccheaus
00:25:44just got to come up.
00:25:44You need a spark for your
00:25:46offense.
00:25:46You got to save the defense a
00:25:47little bit by making.
00:25:49Yeah it's not a perfect throw
00:25:51but it's plenty good enough for
00:25:52you to come down with that one.
00:25:56Well he gets it away after a
00:25:5863 yarder before this one is
00:26:00another rocket.
00:26:01Raymond has some room because of
00:26:02it.
00:26:03Up to the 30 and up and into the
00:26:0532 as we'll be right back after
00:26:08these messages.
00:26:11All right third trip on the field
00:26:13for Caleb Williams and he hasn't
00:26:15missed yet today.
00:26:1610 of 10 122 yards Bears scoring
00:26:19on both drives.
00:26:22Look at their offense.
00:26:23I mean look when you play three
00:26:25different quarterbacks a little
00:26:26difficult and then you get your
00:26:27star quarterback back you figure
00:26:28it's going to look better and it
00:26:30it has.
00:26:36Pressure gets it off the swift
00:26:37with a bunch of blockers.
00:26:39Swift is taken down at about the
00:26:4239 it's a nice play by Avion
00:26:44Terrell.
00:26:44You know you've you know Ferris
00:26:46Bueller's day off.
00:26:47He doesn't.
00:26:47Well this is Caleb's days off
00:26:48which the Bears don't want to
00:26:49see.
00:26:50play for this movie.
00:26:51But you know what they had to
00:26:52deal with it.
00:26:53They were great.
00:26:53They put up what 60 points week
00:26:55one.
00:26:56Caleb was amazing there.
00:26:57And then in case Keenum what a
00:26:58great story.
00:26:59He was incredible off the bench
00:27:00third quarterback against Philly
00:27:01to win.
00:27:02Bayton was very very good against
00:27:04the Jets not as good last week.
00:27:05and see Caleb.
00:27:07Caleb.
00:27:08Caleb Bueller.
00:27:09Bueller.
00:27:09Abe Froman the sausage king of
00:27:11Chicago.
00:27:13Caleb's back.
00:27:13Bottom line.
00:27:14Caleb's enrolled on a Ferrari the
00:27:16last few weeks in Chicago.
00:27:17Yes.
00:27:18Exactly.
00:27:19Here he is to throw.
00:27:21Here's Sogman wide open again.
00:27:23Bears are running free.
00:27:26Wayman has to catch.
00:27:27He's been another one who's been
00:27:29really fitting in.
00:27:30You know kind of Ben Johnson by
00:27:31Khalif Raymond who he loves.
00:27:33He brings him over from Detroit.
00:27:35And he leads the team in receiving.
00:27:36You see he's just been open.
00:27:37Yeah.
00:27:38He just is a real professional
00:27:39veteran players been good for a
00:27:41long time.
00:27:41And Ben Johnson had him in
00:27:42Detroit.
00:27:43He knows his skill set and puts
00:27:46him in these positions to work
00:27:47some of the underneath parts of
00:27:49the coverage working on
00:27:50linebackers and a little
00:27:52misdirection taking advantage of
00:27:54every opportunity.
00:27:55That's what I love about pros
00:27:56pros.
00:27:56They get out there.
00:27:57You sometimes think they're
00:27:58third or fourth on the depth
00:27:59chart but they're there when you
00:28:00need them.
00:28:01They're swift.
00:28:02Whoa.
00:28:03Somersault there is tackled in the
00:28:04middle.
00:28:05Jesse Bates up from the safety
00:28:06you know more on that.
00:28:07He called them.
00:28:08I don't a pros pro.
00:28:10He certainly but he also I
00:28:11don't know there's another
00:28:12player in terms of the trust
00:28:13that the coaching staff has in
00:28:15him.
00:28:15That says a lot.
00:28:16Yeah.
00:28:16It's just you show up every day
00:28:18as these pros with reliability
00:28:20consistency.
00:28:21Sometimes you're the second read
00:28:22on the play.
00:28:23Sometimes you're the fourth or
00:28:24fifth.
00:28:24Sometimes they just put you in
00:28:25to go run block.
00:28:26So you need those type of
00:28:27players on every roster that do
00:28:29the dirty work.
00:28:30It's not stars.
00:28:30It doesn't show up in fantasy
00:28:31football but it's championship
00:28:33football and that's how you
00:28:34win.
00:28:35I feel like a couple of people
00:28:36picked him up in fantasy.
00:28:37He's pretty good here.
00:28:38Swift normally pretty good
00:28:40touchdown early but stopped in
00:28:41his tracks that time by Kendall
00:28:44Daniels the really good looking
00:28:46rookie fourth round draft pick.
00:28:48He's fun to watch.
00:28:50They got two linebackers in
00:28:51Daniels and Diablo who are both
00:28:53safeties that are transitioning
00:28:54the linebacker so they've got
00:28:55great speed there.
00:28:58And now they need a great third
00:29:00down stop.
00:29:00You know early in the game
00:29:02somebody's got to make a play.
00:29:03Someone's got to provide some
00:29:04spark for this team whether it's
00:29:06pass rush cage rush them and
00:29:08force a tight window throw.
00:29:10Let's see if Atlanta can come
00:29:11through.
00:29:12Send a blitz to try and that
00:29:13Williams sees it and it
00:29:15affected him the first
00:29:16incompletion of the day as
00:29:17they sent Xavier Watts to
00:29:19safety on the blitz and it
00:29:20works.
00:29:21And here comes the punt team for
00:29:22the first time.
00:29:23Yeah.
00:29:23The Bears tried to quick snap
00:29:24him which is one thing you do
00:29:26on the road to try to steal a
00:29:29first down.
00:29:30You see Atlanta is not really
00:29:31lined up but Caleb feels a
00:29:32teeny bit of pressure coming
00:29:34from Watson does the smart
00:29:36thing not taking a sack and
00:29:37just throwing her away and now
00:29:38playing field position felt
00:29:40like they had to have that
00:29:41Atlanta did.
00:29:44Yes.
00:29:44Torrey Taylor to point away.
00:29:46You felt they.
00:29:49The key is back deep for the
00:29:50Falcons.
00:29:55Tries to send it to the corner.
00:29:57Taylor is he going to get it
00:29:58done.
00:29:59Bounces look like it went in.
00:30:01Let's see.
00:30:01Waiting for a signal.
00:30:03Did it go in.
00:30:04Yes it does.
00:30:04It's a touch back.
00:30:05It was close.
00:30:06Good effort.
00:30:07Close but no cigar as they
00:30:08say.
00:30:09Though the Falcons will take it
00:30:10looking to generate some
00:30:11outfits with Bajon and company.
00:30:13We come back.
00:30:17How about this NFC South to
00:30:19start the year.
00:30:19Well he got the Saints in the
00:30:21Bucks one and four.
00:30:22They're looking for better.
00:30:23Falcons play with four
00:30:24quarterbacks.
00:30:25We told you they're two and
00:30:25three.
00:30:26And then Carolina's two and
00:30:27two.
00:30:28They're at Philadelphia today.
00:30:29He's playing with Tanner
00:30:30McKee is Jalen Hurts with
00:30:31blood clots in his cap which
00:30:33is scary.
00:30:34Hopefully he gets better soon.
00:30:36Falcons need their offense to get
00:30:39better soon.
00:30:39Down 14 nothing here.
00:30:41See if they get something going
00:30:41after a couple of three and
00:30:42outs.
00:30:44Try to get Bajon Robinson on his
00:30:46horse like that.
00:30:47Goal.
00:30:48Upended.
00:30:48But man is he fast.
00:30:50Cam Lewis saved the touchdown.
00:30:53Crazy to say on a nine yard run
00:30:55but it's true.
00:30:56It did.
00:30:56He's like.
00:30:58That four three speed straight
00:31:00down.
00:31:01Nothing gets in his way.
00:31:03Except for the tackler coming out
00:31:05of the middle of the field.
00:31:06If he misses he's gone.
00:31:08Lewis making a touchdown saving
00:31:10tackle and Bajon felt it.
00:31:12And now Lewis is down for
00:31:14Chicago after that tackle.
00:31:16And the Bears.
00:31:17They're playing really
00:31:18shorthanded on defense today.
00:31:20So they can't afford any more
00:31:21injuries in the secondary.
00:31:23Yeah.
00:31:23And safeties that's why they call
00:31:25them safety.
00:31:25They're the last line of defense.
00:31:27They need to come out from the
00:31:29middle of the field and make
00:31:30those tackles when they run the
00:31:31alley like that.
00:31:34They make those.
00:31:35Sorry.
00:31:35Go.
00:31:35Go ahead.
00:31:36You got it.
00:31:37All right.
00:31:38I'll take it.
00:31:38You go.
00:31:38Injury timeout.
00:31:39How about that.
00:31:40Back after this.
00:31:44Injuries.
00:31:44Divine Diablo starting
00:31:46linebacker with the Falcons
00:31:47going back to get checked out
00:31:48for an arm.
00:31:49And then we just saw on that
00:31:50tackle Cam Lewis.
00:31:52He's going to the tent.
00:31:53He's starting today because
00:31:54Xavier Woods the starting
00:31:56safety was released yesterday.
00:31:58You don't see that very
00:31:58often.
00:31:59And the Bears are shorthanded
00:32:00on D.
00:32:01I'll tell you more after
00:32:02this.
00:32:02Robinson.
00:32:03Oh boy.
00:32:04Look out.
00:32:05Bajon.
00:32:06Oh God.
00:32:09Every carry has a chance to be a
00:32:11home run with him.
00:32:13He is a defensive coordinator's
00:32:15nightmare.
00:32:16He starts to the left and then
00:32:17cuts it all the way back.
00:32:19The entire Chicago defense is at the
00:32:22point of attack and there's no
00:32:24way a linebacker in that case
00:32:26Jackson can keep up with him
00:32:28barely gets his fingers on his
00:32:30shoestring and Bajon's in the
00:32:32open field.
00:32:33Yeah.
00:32:34By the way that tackle by Elijah
00:32:35Hicks who's now in for Lewis
00:32:38at safety.
00:32:39Panics on a play fake with time to
00:32:41throw.
00:32:41Look at deep.
00:32:42That's Drake London.
00:32:43Oh he overthrew him.
00:32:45Oh.
00:32:45He was wide open.
00:32:51They're just trying a little
00:32:52stutter in go off motion.
00:32:55They ran this as the first play
00:32:57last week that in cut.
00:32:58He dips it works back with a
00:33:00little width and the problem is
00:33:02when you're running that route a
00:33:04little bit on the inside part of
00:33:05the field the quarterbacks trying
00:33:07to throw it away from the middle
00:33:08of the field safety.
00:33:09So he fades you a little further
00:33:11outside and you just can't run
00:33:12that fast with your head turned
00:33:14all the way back to the
00:33:15quarterback.
00:33:20Panics will try again stands in
00:33:22over the middle in traffic.
00:33:23It's Kyle Pitts who makes the
00:33:25catch.
00:33:27Bring up third down.
00:33:28Fox Doberfest res up next
00:33:30weekend.

00:33:37NFL's back with America's game
00:33:38of the week.
00:33:39Packers Lions will be there for
00:33:41that a weekend made for Fox
00:33:43Toberfest.
00:33:45Atlanta going against this Bears
00:33:46defense with other two top
00:33:48edge rushers with other starting
00:33:49linebacker and Edwards and
00:33:50Tyreek Stevenson their starting
00:33:51corner and now two state he's
00:33:53out.
00:33:55See if they could take advantage
00:33:56third and for Kyler Gordon in
00:33:58for the Bears for the first time
00:34:00all year number six.
00:34:01They send a blitz Robinson is
00:34:03stuffed.
00:34:04And I think Gordon was there on
00:34:06the tackle.
00:34:10Great disguise.
00:34:12It looked like coverage.
00:34:13And just as the balls being
00:34:15snapped.
00:34:16You got the nickel back sneaking
00:34:19in.
00:34:19He's trying to decide it.
00:34:20But when you see that face and
00:34:22those eyes looking and he's
00:34:23looking for the ball being
00:34:24snapped.
00:34:25He ends up beating the tackle.
00:34:29Good deal again.
00:34:30Tough third down defense and
00:34:31fourth down defense no easier.
00:34:33It's hard.
00:34:33All these guys are at the line
00:34:35of scrimmage.
00:34:35You got to decipher who's
00:34:37coming and who's dropping to
00:34:38make a quick decision.
00:34:41Blitz is coming.
00:34:42Panics knocked down.
00:34:46Bears will take over.
00:34:52And so the Falcons miss a big
00:34:54opportunity down the field and
00:34:56then fourth down.
00:34:57And then James Lynch with the
00:35:00denial.
00:35:01Bears take over.
00:35:02They're up 14 zip.
00:35:06You talk about the 24 draft
00:35:08class.
00:35:09These two guys are pretty good in
00:35:10college, weren't they?
00:35:11Sure were.
00:35:12And they were rewarded with the
00:35:14first overall pick and the eighth
00:35:16overall pick and going against
00:35:18each other here today so far
00:35:20Caleb Williams in his return
00:35:21from the hamstring injury has
00:35:22been electric.
00:35:24Twelve of thirteen hundred and
00:35:25forty two yards and a
00:35:26touchdown.
00:35:29Back to throw again.
00:35:31Little pressure.
00:35:32Now looking around nobody's
00:35:34open stands in going to let
00:35:35one fly deep.
00:35:36Why not incomplete.
00:35:38Cole commits the attempted
00:35:39receiver.
00:35:41The intended receiver I should
00:35:42say.
00:35:44We get a penalty flag as well.
00:35:46Personal foul.
00:35:47Roughing the passer on the
00:35:48defense number ninety four.
00:35:49Let it.
00:35:50Fifteen yard penalty automatic.
00:35:52First down.
00:35:53Yeah.
00:35:54A little late to the party.
00:35:55Caleb.
00:35:56That ball is clearly out.
00:35:58And a little maybe frustration
00:36:00from London there.
00:36:01Yeah.
00:36:02Feel like you haven't gotten
00:36:03there all day.
00:36:03They haven't had a pressure
00:36:04basically all day.
00:36:06Ben Johnson's doing a great
00:36:07job moving the pocket with the
00:36:09run game.
00:36:10Everyone's like I said
00:36:10everyone's kind of going
00:36:11horizontally and then.
00:36:13on first down they.
00:36:14Finally have some good coverage
00:36:16in the secondary.
00:36:17But.
00:36:18You make just a.
00:36:19Little selfish decision by
00:36:21hitting them late.
00:36:22By the way Josh Woods number
00:36:23forty two.
00:36:24Eighth year man in for the
00:36:26Falcons for Diablo their
00:36:27starter.
00:36:28Here is Raymond on the screen.
00:36:30Good move.
00:36:31Khalif Raymond.
00:36:31Look at the speed.
00:36:32We get a penalty.
00:36:34We'll see what this is.
00:36:35But Raymond turned on the
00:36:36Jets that time to work his
00:36:37way down around the twenty.
00:36:39And let's see if it stands.
00:36:45Holding.
00:36:46Offense number fifty eight.
00:36:48That's a ten yard penalty.
00:36:49First down.
00:36:50We're going to get Darnell
00:36:51right there.
00:36:52Superb right tackle.
00:36:53It's credited with a tackle
00:36:54here in the stat sheet.
00:36:55Oh.
00:36:56It's not a penalty.
00:36:57That's a tackle and a
00:36:58pancake.
00:36:59You know if you're going to
00:37:00go for it you might as well
00:37:01just earn it completely.
00:37:02Right.
00:37:02You don't want the quick
00:37:03jersey grab.
00:37:04Just pancake time.
00:37:05And that is a massive
00:37:07human being who's playing
00:37:08great football on the right
00:37:10side of this offensive line.
00:37:12So much continuity here up
00:37:13front.
00:37:14It's amazing for those big
00:37:16guys to get out in space
00:37:17and they got to try to match
00:37:18up against some literally
00:37:19someone who's literally
00:37:20half of their weight.
00:37:22And that was just a little
00:37:24too much.
00:37:26That was a suplex.
00:37:34First and long now.
00:37:37Williams can't find anyone
00:37:38being pressured.
00:37:39Rifles it to the sideline.
00:37:40Got a completion there to
00:37:41Roshan Johnson.
00:37:43And a nice catch and move.
00:37:44Williams.
00:37:45He looks very patient today.
00:37:47He's had a lot of time to
00:37:48throw but he looks very
00:37:49under control especially
00:37:50after what EA told us about
00:37:51before practice.
00:37:52He was sailing balls just
00:37:53excited to be back.
00:37:54I've always seen him as kind
00:37:55of an explosive player
00:37:57meaning he's you know it
00:37:59doesn't have quite the best
00:38:01accuracy in the league.
00:38:02It's improving as he's kind
00:38:04of gaining in his pro
00:38:05career.
00:38:05But I would consider them
00:38:06more explosive than
00:38:07efficient.
00:38:08But today it's efficient.
00:38:09Finding the ball is
00:38:10coming out of his hands
00:38:11quickly on these play action
00:38:12passes.
00:38:13Very accurate and precise
00:38:15with his throws underneath.
00:38:16Playing great football.
00:38:17Johnson nowhere to run
00:38:18that time.
00:38:19His watch is all over him
00:38:20and had some help from his
00:38:22mates.
00:38:22So to bring him a third
00:38:24down.
00:38:25This is exactly how the
00:38:27Bears want to play.
00:38:28Balance run and pass
00:38:29physical run game all the
00:38:30creativity and everybody
00:38:31touching it.
00:38:32Loveland's got balls.
00:38:34Burden's got balls.
00:38:35Adunze's got them.
00:38:36Caleb efficient accurate.
00:38:38Just taking what the
00:38:40defense gives.
00:38:40And I think that's why
00:38:41that's so much that
00:38:41confidence that Ben
00:38:42Johnson had in training
00:38:44camp.
00:38:44We're going to score you
00:38:45know more than any other
00:38:46team in the history of
00:38:46football.
00:38:47You could see why he's got
00:38:48confidence on days like this.
00:38:50But it's working.
00:38:51It is pretty.
00:38:53And it's working so far.
00:38:54Third and seven here.
00:38:58Williams pressure up the
00:38:59middle runs away hit as he
00:39:01throws far side incomplete.
00:39:03That time good pressure by
00:39:04Jervon Dexter the former
00:39:06Bear who they traded here at
00:39:08the end of the summer and
00:39:09then signed a big extension
00:39:10and he's been really good for
00:39:12Atlanta.
00:39:13Sure has his defensive line is
00:39:16just they get a lot of
00:39:17pressure.
00:39:18I would say it's kind of a by
00:39:20committee type team.
00:39:21There's not a lot of
00:39:22household names but a lot of
00:39:23quarterbacks that end up
00:39:24being on the ground.
00:39:26They're going to try a long
00:39:27field goal with Cairo Santos
00:39:29here and this would be his
00:39:30career long.
00:39:31Now we're in dome obviously no
00:39:33weather.
00:39:33But as long in pregame was 54.
00:39:36So this is a little bit of a
00:39:38stretch.
00:39:39See if he can do it.
00:39:40Snap and hold are good.
00:39:42Santos kick is up and it is no
00:39:45good.
00:39:46It was a little bit of a
00:39:47stretch.
00:39:49Long field goal no good.
00:39:50Falcons breathe a sigh of relief
00:39:52and they'll get it back.
00:39:54Just missed here.
00:39:55Still 14 nothing bears.
00:40:0114 nothing bears.
00:40:03Falcons get it back and hey
00:40:05welcome to the booth.
00:40:05I know you love what the Bears
00:40:07and Ben Johnson have got.
00:40:08What do you want to see from
00:40:09the Falcons offensively right
00:40:10now.
00:40:12Good question.
00:40:13We need to convert some third
00:40:14down so they can give the ball
00:40:16to Bajon Robinson more.
00:40:17He's averaging like twelve and
00:40:18a half a carry.
00:40:18He's only got three carries.
00:40:19That's the problem.
00:40:20But in order to get him more
00:40:21carries they've got to convert
00:40:23some of these third downs which
00:40:24Dennis Allen makes it very
00:40:25tough.
00:40:26Here's panics looking to throw
00:40:27rifles one.
00:40:28There we go.
00:40:29Good throw and a move.
00:40:30Drake London makes a big play
00:40:32inside the 15 and actually
00:40:35going to mark them back at the
00:40:3617.
00:40:36But you get it a big play to
00:40:38London.
00:40:38Now big play.
00:40:39This is what it's been all
00:40:40season.
00:40:40He lines up here in the slot
00:40:41and it's just zone coverage
00:40:43working on the safety.
00:40:45Daneman the rookie and great
00:40:49job by panic standing in there
00:40:51buttering the biscuit.
00:40:53Dropping it to Drake London.
00:40:55There you go for those
00:40:57explosive plays.
00:40:58Needed one.
00:41:05Bryan Robinson in the game in
00:41:07the backfield now with a
00:41:08jumbo formation and Robinson
00:41:09left side not much.
00:41:12as Falcons play called by Tommy
00:41:15Reese young play caller first
00:41:16year that Kevin Stavansky
00:41:17brought him over they were
00:41:18together in Cleveland and
00:41:19Stavansky said yeah I'm not
00:41:21going to call the plays I'm
00:41:21going to give it to Tommy and
00:41:23he said you know we we have a
00:41:25lot of the same thoughts but
00:41:26we disagree just enough.
00:41:28Yeah.
00:41:29Very nice job standing in the
00:41:30pocket defensive lineman
00:41:33bearing down on him and I
00:41:35really like his speed and
00:41:36processing information panic says
00:41:39a good job balls in his hands
00:41:40it's a little bit of a hot
00:41:41potato.
00:41:42He doesn't hold it long.
00:41:43He sees the field well and
00:41:44dishes it to his open
00:41:46receiver.
00:41:50Second and eight.
00:41:52Panics pressure.
00:41:53Too hot to handle that time.
00:41:55Try to get it to Dotson.
00:41:58And it's incomplete.
00:41:59Yeah.
00:42:00He got what he wanted on the
00:42:01crossing route.
00:42:03Dotson.
00:42:04Running across the field he
00:42:06beats his defender but this
00:42:07is called one rat cover one
00:42:09and there's a rat defender
00:42:10standing in the middle of the
00:42:11field.
00:42:12And that's the linebacker
00:42:13Jackson just bumps him off his
00:42:16route catches the ball late.
00:42:18And can't quite come down with
00:42:19it.
00:42:20Bears are the best third and long
00:42:21defense in the league teams
00:42:23are two of twenty six.
00:42:25Sheesh against Dennis Allen's
00:42:26group.
00:42:29Panics trying to change it
00:42:30going to throw a fade to
00:42:31Dotson in the corner.
00:42:33He's got it.
00:42:35Touchdown.
00:42:38What a catch.
00:42:48What a catch and what a
00:42:50throw by Panics knows where
00:42:53he's going sees the one on
00:42:55one Dotson on the rookie
00:42:56Muhammad in a perfect throw.
00:43:00Just a little bit on his back
00:43:01shoulder.
00:43:02You love those throws in the
00:43:03red area where the receiver
00:43:05can get both of his eyes turned
00:43:06to the quarterback and come
00:43:08down with that ball.
00:43:10That ignites the home crowd.
00:43:11Falcons.
00:43:12And us.
00:43:13Yeah.
00:43:13Got a little life.
00:43:15See when I asked you what
00:43:17they want to do all you had to
00:43:18say was throw 39 yards of
00:43:19Drake London Tom.
00:43:20I mean come on.
00:43:22He looked away said I'm going to
00:43:24go to my guy Dotson back shoulder
00:43:26fade to perfection.
00:43:29Falcons come alive.
00:43:30We got a game.
00:43:35Falcons get their first answer of
00:43:37the day.
00:43:37Johan Dotson with a 13 yard
00:43:39touchdown catch his second of
00:43:41the year.
00:43:41beauty of a throw and catch from
00:43:43Michael Penix.
00:43:44Thirty nine yard hook up to
00:43:46Drake London got that drive
00:43:47going.
00:43:48And so we got a 14 seven game
00:43:50Bears lead.
00:43:51They'll get it back 545 to go in
00:43:54this first half from the ATL.
00:44:14It's going to be Xavier on
00:44:15Thomas will take it at the
00:44:16three.
00:44:22Tackle before the 20 and we go
00:44:25To Tom.
00:44:26Well Kevin as part of the NFL's
00:44:27crucial catch campaign for
00:44:29cancer awareness of personal
00:44:30and emotional display for the
00:44:32Falcons.
00:44:32You see those specialty search
00:44:34they wore in honor and memory
00:44:35of Christina Albrecht the late
00:44:38wife of Jeff Albrecht.
00:44:39She passed away this past July
00:44:41at this 48 years old.
00:44:43Yep.
00:44:44Two and a half hours before game
00:44:45time taking lap after lap
00:44:47around this field alone and
00:44:49emotional.
00:44:50He said he's been so thankful to
00:44:52be supported by his team and
00:44:53his players through this.
00:44:54He just had three children.
00:44:57It's been a fight where certainly
00:44:59he said so many people have
00:45:00poured into him our hearts as
00:45:02well guys.
00:45:03Yeah.
00:45:03No doubt Tom.
00:45:04Well done.
00:45:05It's a terrible tragedy and he's
00:45:07supported by this team this
00:45:09community very well no doubt.
00:45:10Here is Swift who gets a carry.
00:45:12Bears have a new left tackle for
00:45:14this series.
00:45:14They bring on Ozzy Trapillo and
00:45:17you know Braxton Jones started
00:45:18the year left tackle.
00:45:19They had an open competition but
00:45:20he's hurt.
00:45:21Theo Bennett has been playing but
00:45:22they really liked Trapillo last
00:45:24year.
00:45:25He came on was playing really well
00:45:26and then ruptured his patellar
00:45:28tendon in the wild card win
00:45:29against Green Bay.
00:45:30So this is his first action of
00:45:32the year.
00:45:32Yeah.
00:45:33He's done a great job that entire
00:45:34offensive line up front.
00:45:35They're so consistent depend by
00:45:37reference earlier in the game.
00:45:38I think they're the most
00:45:39consistent dependable group on
00:45:41the entire team.
00:45:42They lean on him in every aspect
00:45:43of the game and they have some
00:45:44depth there to give him time to
00:45:46throw a play pass.
00:45:48Williams looking looking rolling
00:45:51and he's got a completion.
00:45:53Swift has it at the first down.
00:45:55He just bought all the time he
00:45:56could and it paid off.
00:45:57But there is a flag in the
00:45:59secondary far side of the field.
00:46:03So we think it paid off.
00:46:08While the quarterback was in the
00:46:09pocket illegal contact on the
00:46:11defense number 21.
00:46:13That penalties declined.
00:46:14First down.
00:46:17And so it does pay off.
00:46:18Sure does.
00:46:19And he does such a great job
00:46:21escaping the middle of the
00:46:22pocket when he gets outside and
00:46:24he has his vision and with his
00:46:25arm strength.
00:46:26I swear I got every defensive
00:46:28coordinators heart must skip a
00:46:30beat.
00:46:32Because he's out there and look at
00:46:33the vision downfield.
00:46:34He's just scanning the field and
00:46:35he knows that he can run away
00:46:37from every D lineman.
00:46:38So there's no pressure from
00:46:40behind.
00:46:41And then he's got to make it just
00:46:43make a great decision outside
00:46:44the pocket throw it away or
00:46:45paint it on his running back's
00:46:46chest.
00:46:46To.
00:46:56Swift.
00:46:56It's a good block from commit gets to
00:46:58the end.
00:46:59The Andre Swift, there's a penalty
00:47:00that flies multiple penalties and the
00:47:03Falcons are saying it's going to come
00:47:04back.
00:47:06Darn it.
00:47:07Swift to Saint.
00:47:08Darn it.
00:47:08I didn't need your help on that play.

00:50:23the great run it's got to go for not he's actually a great player. I love him as a great
00:50:28character
00:50:30he's got great chemistry with Caleb Williams and it's nice if you're the Bears fans to see all these young
00:50:35players heating up
00:50:50yeah there's some discussion but the Bears they don't have to snap it here it could take it to the
00:50:53two minute warning looks like they're more than happy to do just that.
00:50:57And so they will be facing a third and 17 when we come back two minutes ago first half Chicago
00:51:04up by seven game of catch. I like to be a part of it's pretty good right there with your
00:51:10Hall of Famers look forward to the halftime show a lot of action in this one o'clock window this
00:51:14week.
00:51:1714 7 Bears lead it two minutes ago in the first half and they've got a third and 17 right
00:51:23now.
00:51:26Caleb Williams time to throw over the middle Loveland's got a way to go Falcons converge he gets close but
00:51:32he's going to be a yard short.
00:51:33Wow picked up 16 on that play almost a little too laxing days ago as they were playing by the
00:51:38sticks.
00:51:40How crazy is Ben Johnson want to get here.
00:51:43And crazy enough said the pun team out.
00:51:45Yeah I think that's pretty smart. He's got everything going his way. Don't want to give the home team any
00:51:49extra momentum.
00:51:50They're at least very solid half.
00:51:52I'm sure he's got a lot of ammunition still on that call sheet ready for the second half.
00:51:56A little too much risk a little too early in the game.
00:51:59The Falcons will call their first timeout so they're going to have plenty of time.
00:52:04And they seemingly will get it back barring some kind of trick play here.
00:52:09I'll tell you the way this game started Bears first two drives rifling right down the field doing whatever they
00:52:14want.
00:52:14Could have gotten away from Atlanta but they've kind of hung in and weathered the storm and now down by
00:52:19seven will get it here.
00:52:27Taylor good boot fair catch is called for.
00:52:30Picked up by Chicago on the muff.
00:52:33The Bears have it.
00:52:35They won't be able to advance it on the muff but they'll have it at the 10.
00:52:40Josh Blackwell.
00:52:46Okay the kick was mocked.
00:52:49Recovered by the kicking team.
00:52:52By rule there's no advance.
00:52:54Branch just misjudges it coming off the punter's foot.
00:52:59And Blackwell the gunner just a lot of pressure putting it down the field untouched.
00:53:05And you always want to secure the punt.
00:53:08I know it's a young player and you put him out there in a big game like this and Stefanski
00:53:12knows it.
00:53:14It's a thankless job being a punt returner at times especially when you're fair catching balls.
00:53:21You only really get noticed when this happens and turnovers have been such a big part of the Bears success
00:53:28the last few years.
00:53:29And now it's the first catastrophic mistake of the game.
00:53:33And a gift.
00:53:34The Bears have it on the 10.
00:53:37First and goal.
00:53:40They go three tight ends here.
00:53:42Quick they get it outside.
00:53:44Loveland has a couple blocks.
00:53:45Loveland is tackled inside the two.
00:53:53It's one way to get it outside of the defensive line.
00:53:56He's done a good job today.
00:53:59Hemming up some of these interior runs.
00:54:00Just swing it out there.
00:54:01Got a little blocking by committee out there.
00:54:04And again the Bears 32nd in the offense.
00:54:0932nd in the league in the red zone offense.
00:54:11Coming in today.
00:54:12Two for two so far.
00:54:13We'll see if they can punch it in.
00:54:18Fake to Swift.
00:54:20Williams rolling.
00:54:21Throwing.
00:54:22Loveland is wide open but a little behind him.
00:54:26A little behind him.
00:54:27But that's all on the tight end there.
00:54:29Polson Loveland's got to slow up.
00:54:31He's running full speed out of bounds.
00:54:33Whenever you get to the numbers throttle down.
00:54:37Caleb's trying to keep him in play.
00:54:39You can see him.
00:54:40And Loveland's sprinting to the water cooler.
00:54:42That's not what you want.
00:54:44Why would a Michigan man do that?
00:54:46You know I'm trying to.
00:54:48It's tough love sometimes too.
00:54:49Okay.
00:54:49It's like.
00:54:51Polson Loveland.
00:54:52You're the best.
00:54:53Yeah.
00:54:54Well they had an opportunity there.
00:54:55Obviously missed.
00:54:57And now Falcons will take a timeout.
00:55:00Avion Terrell is the injured player.
00:55:02And again they're banged up in the secondary.
00:55:04No C.J. Henderson today.
00:55:05Their starter.
00:55:07So Terrell has started today.
00:55:09He's played a lot this year anyway.
00:55:11But we'll go out for at least a moment here.
00:55:17Decent season.
00:55:18Again so many players in this Falcon secondary.
00:55:22It's just hard for them to really get comfortable on defense when you're rotating so many players at D-line
00:55:29and in the secondary.
00:55:31It's a challenge for Ulbrich to settle down on things they're really good at.
00:55:34They're just not sure.
00:55:35You're six games into the year and you still really don't know what you're good at.
00:55:38Yeah.
00:55:40So that was A.J. Terrell.
00:55:43Avion's brother who is the star cornerback for this team who's out right now injured too.
00:55:47Third and goal bears.
00:55:52Swift right side.
00:55:54Touchdown Chicago.
00:56:11Here's DeAndre Swift.
00:56:13Taking the scenic route straight through the defender's chest.
00:56:19Boom.
00:56:20Boom.
00:56:21Smells the goal line.
00:56:22The offensive line ends in the end zone.
00:56:25They displace the line of scrimmage.
00:56:27That's how you take advantage of opponents' mistakes.
00:56:29And again, so much of the Bears' success has been getting turnovers.
00:56:36Go on the road.
00:56:37They played great football through this first half.
00:56:39Taking advantage of everything.
00:56:40And it hasn't been much that Atlanta's given them.
00:56:42But that's quite a bit here at halftime.
00:56:43Yeah, they take advantage of the fumble on the punt.
00:56:46Make it 21 to 7.
00:56:47Two scores for Swift.
00:56:48And we'll be right back after this message from State Farm.
00:56:52All right.
00:56:53First mistake of the game.
00:56:54And the Bears take advantage.
00:56:56And it started with Zachariah Branch, the rookie.
00:56:58He just got a little out of sorts.
00:57:02Josh Blackwell was right there to pick it up.
00:57:05And DeAndre Swift has a two-touchdown first half.
00:57:07Great surge by that offensive line, as you noted, TB.
00:57:12And just when it seemed like the Falcons may have had a little smidge of momentum,
00:57:16the Bears immediately snatch it right back.
00:57:18It's a little game of momentum.
00:57:20Atlanta did everything they could to claw back into it.
00:57:22And one little mistake by a young player sends him into halftime.
00:57:27And again, still a lot of time left.
00:57:28There's a minute 30 left.
00:57:31Yep.
00:57:31And they got one timeout.
00:57:34See if they can do anything with it here.
00:57:36It's Branch trying to redeem himself.
00:57:38Trying to get to the edge.
00:57:40And up to about the 27-28 yard line.
00:57:44You know, with the Bears defense, we showed you how shorthanded they are today.
00:57:49They've done a fine job concerning all the injuries.
00:57:51Yeah, great job there just on that screenplay.
00:57:54They know they've been talking all week.
00:57:56They've got to swarm the quarterback, get to the middle of the pocket on Pennix.
00:58:00And when you're on the road, it takes everybody going against one of the top-ranked rushing teams.
00:58:05They've got hands up in throwing lanes.
00:58:07D.A.'s done a great job coordinating this team.
00:58:12Again, one thing they're lacking is turnovers.
00:58:15They're not, you know, I think I haven't got them on defense today.
00:58:17But the special teams, those ones count too.
00:58:20Here's Pennix.
00:58:21Lofting one for Zaccheaus.
00:58:23And he wasn't open at all.
00:58:24DeMarco Jackson was there.
00:58:26And the Bears have good news on this series.
00:58:28Cam Lewis, the starting safety, is back in.
00:58:30And Aaron Andrews told us he got checked for a head injury, and he's okay.
00:58:35Yeah, the Bears defense has been on the field for seven minutes in the first half.
00:58:40Talk about trying to slow down Bajon Robinson as we did in our open.
00:58:43What did you say?
00:58:44We slow him down.
00:58:45You just keep him off the field.
00:58:46Keep him on the field.
00:58:47Keep him on the sideline.
00:58:48That offense has done awesome for the Bears.
00:58:50And now, down 14, it's just how disciplined are you to hand the ball off?
00:58:55And you make this Atlanta offense way more one-dimensional than they want to be.
00:59:03Pennix.
00:59:04Robinson.
00:59:05Looked like a hole there.
00:59:06And there is a flag from the secondary.
00:59:11Try to get it Bajon in the pass game that time.
00:59:15Prior to the pass, holding.
00:59:17Defense number one.
00:59:18That's a five-yard penalty and an automatic first down.
00:59:23And I'm totally fine with holding Bajon, because if he catches it, he could go much further
00:59:27than that just little simple holding penalty.
00:59:29Did a good job.
00:59:31You talked in the open, Tom, about how electric he is not only running ball, but in the pass
00:59:34game, he's splendid as well.
00:59:36But got two catches, minus eight yards.
00:59:39I know it's a penalty there, but they're kind of all over him.
00:59:42They've done a pretty good job making sure he doesn't damage him in that part of it.
00:59:45Such a tough package.
00:59:46All these players, they don't know who's blitzing.
00:59:48They don't know who's dropping.
00:59:49You've got to figure it out post-snap.
00:59:51See Penix trying to talk to his receivers right now about that.
00:59:57They send a blitz left side.
00:59:59Penix gets rid of it.
01:00:00It's underthrown a little bit.
01:00:01And Pitts had his hands on it anyway.
01:00:03Could not bring it in.
01:00:07So, he's second down and 10, 105 to go, one timeout.
01:00:11Tom, that's a guy that they need to unlock, right?
01:00:15I mean, yeah.
01:00:16I mean, Bajon's great.
01:00:18Drake London's great.
01:00:18They need a third person to kind of really make this offense go.
01:00:21Yeah, and they're trying.
01:00:22He is a receiving mismatch, but he's not the most fluid route runner.
01:00:26He's very good in straight line routes.
01:00:27It seems the ball straight to the flat or across the field.
01:00:31When they try to chop his feet down, he just hasn't been as successful getting open against the, you know,
01:00:36certainly man-to-man defender.
01:00:37Panix has dropped.
01:00:38Ball is loose.
01:00:39Goes backwards.
01:00:41Still alive.
01:00:42Still there.
01:00:44Bears.
01:00:45Who got it?
01:00:46I think the Falcons.
01:00:47It might have been Lindstrom who got back there.
01:00:50Oh, my goodness.
01:00:51Bedlam, and it all started with the pressure.
01:00:53Rolling on the field was played as a fumble, recovered by the offense.
01:00:58Third down.
01:00:59Yeah, Hardy free to the quarterback.
01:01:01And is he down?
01:01:05Probably down.
01:01:06Yeah.
01:01:07Right cheek is down.
01:01:09Yeah, definitely down.
01:01:12But that clock should be running.
01:01:18Again, part of what makes this offense good, and I would say,
01:01:22Atlanta's offense has been great as a run-blocking unit.
01:01:25Their offensive line is just not built for some of these drop-back pass situations right now.
01:01:30Play is being reviewed.
01:01:32Well, let's bring in Dean Blandino.
01:01:34Dean?
01:01:35Dean.
01:01:35That looks like he was down in our perspective, but give us the professional perspective.
01:01:40You guys can speculate.
01:01:42I can give you the final answer.
01:01:44Thank you.
01:01:45So he is down.
01:01:46Looks like that right calf.
01:01:47Remember, it's anything other than a foot or a hand.
01:01:49Looks like Penix is right, calf is down.
01:01:52So now they'll bring the ball back to that spot, reset the clock, and we'll have a 10-second runoff
01:01:57because if they had ruled it correctly, the clock would have continued to run.
01:02:01Okay.
01:02:01He is here, Dean Blandino.
01:02:03You know?
01:02:05I am here.
01:02:06He is here.
01:02:07Good to have you here, as always.
01:02:09He is here.
01:02:09So that will come back, but the bottom line is, I'll come back to where the pennant, where
01:02:14the sack occurred.
01:02:14Bottom line is Bears getting some pressure there.
01:02:19Yeah, and this is just a very tough situation for this Atlanta offense.
01:02:23We've seen it on third down today.
01:02:25Let's see.
01:02:25They are one of four on third down.
01:02:27But Dennis Allen uses his third down defense in these two-minute situations.
01:02:32The quarterback's calf was down, had control of the ball, so he's down by contact at the
01:02:3722-yard line.
01:02:39The clock was at one minute, two seconds.
01:02:42Chicago is elected to take a timeout to save the 10-second runoff.
01:02:47That'll be Chicago's first timeout in the first half.
01:02:53So it's just such a tough two-minute defense and a third down defense.
01:02:57It really challenges all these pass protections.
01:03:02And I think they're very vulnerable, the Bears defense, when they give up some big plays.
01:03:06They just have not made many big plays today, Atlanta's offense, because they haven't been
01:03:09able to play the game on their terms at all.
01:03:10Yeah.
01:03:11Got off to such a slow start.
01:03:12Bears go down the field.
01:03:14They go up 7-0.
01:03:14They got 1-3 and out.
01:03:15It's 14-0.
01:03:16They've run three plays.
01:03:17You're just backpedaling the whole day.
01:03:22Well, it's 3rd and 20 after all that, the first Bears sack of the day.
01:03:28First, Scott Novak, say the Bears used a timeout.
01:03:30They're going to run to Robinson here.
01:03:32Robinson works his way up to the 35, and soon the Bears would use another timeout here
01:03:36with a punch situation, and they will.
01:03:38So Chicago will have an opportunity.
01:03:40With just under a minute left, they will get it back, and they'll have a timeout to play.
01:03:44We'll see what Ben Johnson can scheme on up.
01:03:47All right, Kevin Stefanski's just got to be just kicking himself 14-7.
01:03:52You're getting the ball on the punt, and next thing you know, you're down 21-0, 21-7,
01:03:57and now you're putting back to the Bears' explosive offense.
01:04:00Yeah, they do get the ball in the third quarter, but they still got to defend for 56 seconds left
01:04:06in this half here.
01:04:14And Khalif Raymond, always a threat, back deep.
01:04:17Three career punt returns for him.
01:04:26High, booming punt, goes out of bounds right out of the 33 flags on this play.
01:04:44During the kick, holding, receiving team number 92.
01:04:48That's a 10-yard penalty.
01:04:49First down.
01:04:50So Daniel Hardy giveth, Daniel Hardy taketh away.
01:04:53He had the big sack, and then a holding penalty.
01:04:57The story of this first step has been the return of Caleb Williams, Tom.
01:05:00He has been absolutely sensational.
01:05:02Yeah, great throw just across his body.
01:05:04You see him dropping it down and finding Loveland on the run outside of the pocket.
01:05:09And then in the pocket, great throws to his talented group of skilled players on time to the perimeter.
01:05:16Like I said, he's efficient, he's accurate, and then when he hasn't been, you know,
01:05:21ball coming out of his hands quickly, he's been moving in the pocket, buying time,
01:05:25and allowing those receivers to work what I call a second route.
01:05:27They run the first route, they settle in the zone, it's not there.
01:05:30Caleb scrambles.
01:05:31They adjust, they turn into a second route,
01:05:33which is very hard for an Atlanta defense to cover two routes on the same play.
01:05:37Right, it's like how long can you cover, right?
01:05:39Yeah, not that long.
01:05:40It's hard in the NFL.
01:05:41These guys are so fast, athletic, and big, and they get away from you pretty easily.
01:05:45See what they have here.
01:05:46Cole Komet in the flat.
01:05:47Cole is just going to run out of bounds after a short game with 41 seconds left to go.
01:05:52Yeah, plenty of time for the Bears' offense.
01:05:55And again, Atlanta's defense has not got a ton of pressure on Caleb Williams today.
01:06:00He's been able to stand back there, and he evades these rushers so easily.
01:06:04So you've got to be careful how you rush them.
01:06:07With one timeout, they've probably got, yeah, probably 40 yards to go with 40 seconds.
01:06:13They've got plenty of time.
01:06:14Probably at this point thinking field goal for the Bears' offense.
01:06:20Williams pressured late.
01:06:22And now he's going to go down.
01:06:25Atlanta has their first sack of the day.
01:06:27It was Brandon Dorlis who got there first with some help from Dexter.
01:06:31Wow, you don't see that too often.
01:06:34The little interior stunt.
01:06:38Dexter and Dorlis.
01:06:41Really good.
01:06:42That little cross stunt inside.
01:06:44They've got someone on the right, someone on the left.
01:06:45You see Caleb.
01:06:46He just can't quite find any type of lane to step up into.
01:06:50And Smith's saying, finally, I got you.
01:06:55And Caleb's like, one for the entire half isn't going to be good enough to do.
01:07:00The cagey veterans at area, Smith.
01:07:03You know, Atlanta, by the way, called that timeout.
01:07:06Their last.
01:07:07Going to try and make Chicago at least...
01:07:10Snap the ball.
01:07:11Sweat a little bit.
01:07:12Yeah, probably just a handoff here.
01:07:15Chicago Bears would be very content to go in up 14 points.
01:07:19I'm sure.
01:07:27Correct, TB.
01:07:28Here's Swift outside.
01:07:30DeAndre Swift.
01:07:31Nice little run up across the 25.
01:07:34And that will take us on in.
01:07:38With a 21-7 first half.
01:07:41And Caleb Williams, 19 of 22, 197 yards and a touchdown on his return.
01:07:47What a half.
01:07:48What a return.
01:07:49All that Ben Johnson could possibly ask for here.
01:07:52They don't have to run a play.
01:07:54They can go to half.
01:07:54And they will do that happy.
01:07:57First half stats are brought to you by McDonald's.
01:08:01For the Bears with a 14-point lead.
01:08:03And looking good in this one.
01:08:05The offense with Caleb Williams back.
01:08:07The yards will play.
01:08:08And they've owned the time of possession.
01:08:10Falcons have done much on offense.
01:08:12But they also have another ball.
01:08:13That's been the winning combination for the Bears.
01:08:16Up 21-7 at the break here in Atlanta.
01:08:20Curt, the Verizon Halftime Show.
01:08:21And the fellas coming your way after this.
01:08:34Caught!
01:08:34Colson Loveland's right up the gun.
01:08:38And touchdown Chicago.
01:08:41He's got it!
01:08:43What a catch and what a throw.
01:08:46The Bears have it!
01:08:47DeAndre Swift taking the scenic route.
01:08:52Oh yeah, today's game flow brought to you by Progressive 21-7 Bears.
01:08:56Falcons will get the ball to start the third quarter.
01:08:58But we've got to talk Chicago's offense, TB.
01:09:01I mean, Caleb Williams back.
01:09:02We knew that was a big story.
01:09:03But they've looked great.
01:09:04What have you been impressed with the most?
01:09:07Everything.
01:09:07Everything.
01:09:08I mean, I know it's the first-ranked rushing offense in the league.
01:09:10But the way that Caleb's distributed the ball to all the guys that really haven't had kind of breakout seasons
01:09:16as far that we're expecting.
01:09:17Loveland, Burden, Adunze, all those guys are touching it.
01:09:20Everybody's producing.
01:09:22Then you throw those direct runs in to Swift.
01:09:24Then Caleb on the scrambles.
01:09:26And, you know, that's how you get 200 yards passing and total control this game.
01:09:31Then they got the one turnover they needed off the muffed punt.
01:09:34And they're pretty much in control.
01:09:36Yeah, you know, it's amazing because they had that game with Keenum who was great in the win over Philadelphia.
01:09:41And then they beat the Jets with Bajan.
01:09:42And they're like, oh, Ben Johnson can come with anyone.
01:09:43But it looks a lot better when the starting quarterback is back in there.
01:09:47And Williams and this offense and the young guys you mentioned have been great.
01:09:51Now let's see if the Falcons can get it going.
01:09:56On the return here, not much there.
01:09:59As we get downstairs to Tom.
01:10:00Well, he'd be talking to Kevin Stefanski coming back out at halftime.
01:10:03He said, we just have to find a way to possess the ball and hold on to it.
01:10:07He said, listen, you have to stay patient and remain with the plan despite being down.
01:10:11And we know what that means.
01:10:12Get the ball to Bajan Robinson.
01:10:14Handing it off to him, passing it to him so that we can continue to build some possession.
01:10:18Defensively, he said, Caleb Williams put so much pressure on you to defend for so long.
01:10:23It's almost like you're defending two plays with each time he takes a snap.
01:10:27Whether they run it or they pass it.
01:10:28But he said, we need to put this drive together and try to get a hold of this game back.
01:10:32K.B.
01:10:33It's like he was listening to Tom Brady.
01:10:34It's exactly what Tom said before and that has been a factor in this game.
01:10:38Now the offense with Panix who lets one fly deep for London.
01:10:43A little pushy and shoving and we get a penalty flag.
01:10:47Muhammad on the coverage.
01:10:48We'll see where they get it.
01:10:49And it looks like it's going to go against Chicago.
01:10:52Pass interference on a defense number 24.
01:10:55That's a spot foul on an automatic.
01:10:58Yeah, tough task for Muhammad going on this excellent receiver who's got size and catch radius.
01:11:04That's one way to keep him from getting his left arm up is just grab it.
01:11:09That's a spot foul on an automatic.
01:11:09That's a spot foul on an automatic.
01:11:09That's a spot foul on an automatic.
